He has 2 guys with him, one was fine, the other I’m afraid did not speak very good English so we had to be on hand to guide him as we had marked all the boxes with the rooms but he couldn’t read! He was also very lecherous and even stood Far too close to me so that we were touching and it was extremely uncomfortable! I’d like to think that it was a cultural thing but I’m not sure! They damaged our new filing cabinet as it was dropped on the front stairs! Also, the move took so long, if there were one more man they could have gone to the new house and emptied it while the second one was being filled. The guys worked well though so not many complaints"

The two removals gentlemen that came with the van were calm, did not complain and did not get annoyed (unlike me) and just got on with the job in hand while I was about to lose the plot! Having them there meant that I managed to not lose the plot and just get on with it despite the challenging circumstances. I have to say they were excellent and also very reasonably priced. They were also quick and organised and did the packing of van very efficiently, packed fragile items safely, hooked up washing machine for me. Thanks very much Sevi and your guys."

How Much Are Our Removal Company Costs In East London?
Compare My Move’s research discovered that Friday is the most popular day to move house in East London. Over 32.9% of movers chose this as their moving day, providing it with an overwhelming majority. The average cost of moving house on a Friday is currently £937.19, so don’t forget to factor this in when planning your budget.
The least popular day to move house in East London is Sunday, which has an average cost of £717. Despite the lower percentage of movers choosing this day, it is actually much cheaper than a Friday move. With a saving of 21%, you may want to consider booking your moving date on a Sunday to help save money when you need it most.
What Is The Best Time of Year To Move in East London?
Compare My Move’s most recent research discovered that August is the most popular month to move house in East London, with 12.8% of movers choosing this date to move. This is unsurprising as Summer is often a popular time of year for removals, with the brighter days and school holidays providing the perfect conditions to move house.
Summer is also a popular time to move across the whole of the UK, supporting the idea that this time of year has the optimal conditions for moving house. The school holidays mean less disruption for children, whilst the weather means brighter and longer days to complete your journey. If you’re planning a Summer move, don’t forget to compare removal quotes early to reduce the amount of competition.
Agreeing with the rest of the UK, Winter is the least popular time of year to move house in East London. February, in particular, is the least popular month with only 5.4% of home movers choosing this month as their moving date. Winter is often unpopular due to the freezing weather and darker days. Snow and sleet can make the roads more dangerous whilst the cold air often encourages many to stay cosy inside.
What Is The Best Day Of The Week To Move In East London?
With the weekend ensuring you have ample amounts of free time to unpack and settle into your new home, Friday is the most popular day to move house in East London. Our research shows that 32.9% of movers chose this day for their moving date last year.
However, only 4.8% chose Sunday as their moving day, making it the least popular day to move house in East London. With the working week looming, it’s unsurprising that people don’t want to risk adding further chaos by having to unpack and clean their new property. Many banks and conveyancers’ offices will be closed during this day, meaning there will also be little to no communication available if something should go wrong.
What Are The Top 5 Locations for East London Movers?
Thinking of moving out of East London? Compare My Move has helped hundreds of movers leave the area, connecting them with the best removal companies for the job. The most popular location for those leaving East London is currently Romford, with an overwhelming majority of 13.2% choosing this location. Other popular destinations include Hornchurch, London, Brentwood and Bexleyheath.
Whether it’s for a change of scenery or to help your growing family, no matter what the reason, Compare My Move will help you move house with ease! To aid you in your search for the perfect destination, we’ve included the average house price in each of the above areas by using data from the UK House Price Index and Right Move. As a start, East London’s average house price is £474,311.
1. Romford
With the lowest average house price of £362,838, it’s easy to see why the majority of East London movers chose Romford as their next home. The area has excellent transport links for commuters and is one of the largest commercial, retail, entertainment and leisure districts in London.
2. Hornchurch
Hornchurch is a suburb town in East London and currently has an average property price of £431,197. With traditional terrace houses and spacious, semi-detached homes, there’s plenty to choose from in this area when house-hunting.
3. London
A favourite amongst British movers, London has a current average house price of £483,922. England’s capital has a lot to offer, with higher salaries, plenty of job opportunities and a diverse lifestyle. The average price may be much higher, but it’s still a popular destination and one to seriously consider.
4. Brentwood
A town in the Borough of Brentwood, our research shows that Brentwood has an average property price of £431,083. It is considered as part of the London commuter belt and is surrounded by open countryside and woodland for those wanting a mix of city and country life.
5. Bexleyheath
Bexleyheath has a number of good secondary schools for those moving with children and the current average house price is £397,824. With a hockey club, five-a-side football centre and more, there’s definitely a variety of entertainment and activities to keep you going throughout the week.
What Are The Average Property Prices In East London?
East London’s average property price currently stands at £474,311, which can be quite costly for many movers.
